Winter "Frostbite" Racing
Edgewood Sailing School and Edgewood Yacht Club support a vibrant fleet of over a dozen frostbite sailors who sail Sunfish on Sundays from October through April, including Columbus Day and New Year's Day regattas, and the annual "Up From The Ashes" regatta which commemorates recovery from club-house fire of 2011. Edgewood Sailing School can help you get safely started with this challenging and rewarding winter sport. The Frozen Few also welcome spectators to cheer on racers.

3rd Annual "Up from the Ashes" regatta - January 19, 2014
THE THIRD ANNUAL UP FROM THE ASHES - - The Sailing School and the Edgewood Yacht Club jointly sponsor winter racing for the "Edgewood Frozen Few." This weekend COMMEMORATES the Sunday three years ago when the Rhode Island sailing community actually lifted those Edgewood FrozenFew up from the ashes of the burned-out Clubhouse.
Ice Fishing 1/5/2014
The recent cold weather brought ice to EYC for the first time in several years, creating some challenging sailing conditions. While the race committee tried to find open water to set up the course, the current gradually brought in a thin layer of ice, slowing the boats and making it nearly impossible to read the wind on the water.
